Recommendations for the EU Chips Act 2.0: Stronger strategy to boost technological competitiveness and resilience in Europe
To improve competitiveness globally and promote economic security, Europe must keep pace with
the fast-changing realm of semiconductor technologies. Considering the risks associated with
geopolitical tensions and trade conflicts, it is imperative for the EU to enhance its capabilities in
information networks, defense technology, and AI processing, all of which depend on advanced
chip technologies.
Against this backdrop, the EU Chips Act 2.0 must adopt a systemic and strategic approach,
aligning both national and EU policies to fully exploit European semiconductor innovation by
leveraging key investments, promoting collaborative research, and tackling crucial workforce
challenges. Finland’s pioneering chip sector, under its new national strategy Chips from the
North, seeks to contribute to the EU’s goal of developing a robust semiconductor industry.
